(4) After March 15, 2007, local health officers may only permit those distribution products registered under the requirements of this chapter.

(5) In order to be registered, manufacturers with distribution product models specified on the department's list of approved systems and products (excluding products being evaluated under the experimental systems program) on September 15, 2005, or subsequently added to the list as provided in subsection (1)(a) of this section, shall apply for product registration before March 15, 2007, using the following information:

(a) Manufacturers may apply for registration using the information previously provided to the department in support of product approval application, without further professional engineer certification.

This provision is valid for only those models on the approved list of systems and products.

(c) Manufacturers and distribution products shall meet all other requirements established in these rules for product registration.
